Laura’s Nine Things:
1. It’s not your fault
2. It is your responsibility
3. This is your thing
4. It is unfair that this is your thing

8. I love you
9. I will never stop reminding you of these things

@@lala34mc You did amazing! I got so so so much out of this video. Thank you for creating such honest and real resources that better the lives of so many.
It's not your fault, but it is your responsibility - such a powerful yet simple acknowledgment
'When you use substances, what are you doing? Are you hiding or are you savouring?' I'm a little late to the party but love this one, Ryan!
I'm listening to Laura's book on Audible. It's a very honest, inspiring listen and it's really well narrated with compassion and kindness. Thanks for this podcast. Really enjoyed listening 😊👏
Another outstanding broadcast!!! I have VICTORY over many addictions & this is such a sweet smile 4 me 2 realize how far I've come. YES. I am so thankful. Love what your doing!!! Keep on fighting the good fight!!!!
For Christina's question with Amazon spending, I would recommend turning off all notifications for Amazon, be they in the browser, email or the Amazon app. The savings they push out are usually pence / cents. Set dates when you need to resupply on those cleaning supplies.
Yes! Also even delete the app.
Definitely one of my favorite episodes and can’t wait for the Maximal episode
Minimalism and the Blue Zone lifestyle are natural pairing!
My mum was a hoarder (she recently died) and I never managed to “help” her with her hoarding problem. When we cleared out her house, we realised the pathological extent of it.

When I see how alcohol addiction destroys a person, a family and society, I understand why it had been forbidden in Islam. From an early age we are taught not to drink alcohol and later throughout our life, this teaching keeps us away from alcohol and saves us from this terrible addiction.
I think I save money by not worrying about what's on sale. I think price comparing causes a lot of anxiety and wastes my time. I think when we think that something is a good deal, that leads us to spend more money on things we really don't need, like we saved money there so we can now spend money here. Also, I don't use coupons anymore. It's just a way for the store to get you in the door and then you spend money on things you don't really need.
I love you guys so much 💞 Thank you for all that you do.
I love you guys! Thanks for changing my life and everyone else’s❤️ i’ve started cleaning my life soul) with «LESS IS MORE»
If my mom was giving me a bunch of high dollar stuff id sell it and start a retirement or emergency fund for her.
Another great content. Thanks
Privacy.com lets you create virtual credit cards that you can use for specific vendors, and you can set a spending limit on them. While it won't necessarily stop you from creating new cards on a whim, maybe it'll add some awareness to spending when you hit a limit or the card gets declined.
I checked Facebook 3 times while listening to this episode. I need help.
Thanks
where can we send our audio recordings so they answer them?
Can’t get into Patreon to listen to the long version
